`Whether counsellors practice privately or within institutions, they will find valuable information within such sections as specialties of counselling, legal and ethical issues, insurance and malpractice. Each chapter is fully referenced. This is an excellent library resource with complete appendices of American Counseling Associations' - Today's Librarian `This handbook is a hallmark of collaboration with a consistency of style and quality uncharacteristic of edited works. Highly recommended for academic and professional counselling collections' - Library Journal A landmark publication, The Handbook of Counseling defines the field of counselling - how it has developed, the current state of the discipline and profession, and where this dynamic field is going. Edited and with chapters contributed by the leaders in counselling education and research (including several former-presidents of the American Counselling Association), this Handbook is comprehensive in its scope. Sections cover the counselling profession, including its emergence and current status; foundation considerations such as the major approaches to counselling; settings and interventions; education and supervision; research strategies; and critical and cutting-edge issues such as responses to social and professional diversity, computer applications, and the state of independent counselling practice. Sponsored by Chi Sigma Iota, the national honour society of counselling, The Handbook of Counseling is a "must-have" resource for all counsellor educators, supervisors, counsellors-in-training, professionals, and libraries.
